Sigh!
Back home. After a long and winding vacation, with Slj.
Highlights include a visit to Canaan Valley, West Virginia, where in the beautiful countryside punctuated only by pickup trucks, snow-white churches and restaurants advertising home-made meals, I got my first sight ever of the leafless autumn I only knew through comparisons to Larkin's bored childhood.
Then a visit to Baltimore, MD, where at the science center embarrassingly(for us) short of adults, with an increasingly exasperated Slj beside me, I indulged my juvenile fascination with dinosaurs.
Finally a short but exciting trek at the Breakneck Ridge trail, NY, with my brother and his fiancee.

Welcome back, sbkt.
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a great time. Lovely pictures :).
"Exasperated Slj"
why wouldn't she feel that way-come on, stop being that nerdy :). Dinosaurs, no way!
I loved parts of Baltimore too, some places have that old world feel-and the bonus was a trip to Washington DC.

ReplyDelete:-D. Believe me, I had to make up for that.

Ya, I guess. We hung mostly around the Inner Harbor. Didn't have a lot of time to spare in Baltimore, unfortunately. And the dinosaurs took the little :-D.
